Pelosi is an idiot.
I think they’re so stupid, they actually believe it.
And we all know the kneepad media would never question them.
I have the greatest compassion for people out of work.
Having said that when does Unemployment become Welfare?
I know jobs are hard to find,but they can be found if you look.If the unemployment payments stop probably half will find jobs.
They may not pay what they ask, they may not provide a lot of benefits, the pay may not even match their unemployment checks, but they will find work.
Even Obama is pushing this line. That unemployment check is the quickest way of growing the economy and growing jobs, ROFL. Talk about stupid
Send us all an extra $1000 mo and it’ll create jobs also. The problem is how to pay for the handout?
They used to give Village Idiots pocket change.
Now they get half of your paycheck.
Thank goodness the economy is doing so poorly and the unemployment rate is so high - because if fewer people were unemployed on unemployment, then people wouldn’t be able to find work.
“And we all know the kneepad media would never question them.”
Kneepad media is right.
Quick, let’s all break more windows. Then the economy will really recover and we’ll have full employment numbers again. /s
Clearly, the botox has begun seeping into Pelosi’s brain.
The botox has leaked into her last brain cell.....
Using her logic, we should increase the amount of benefits by a factor of 10 and create 6,000,000 jobs. Then we’d have to import the dregs of Mexico to help fill them.
Wait a sec, we already do that.
Botox injections, Nancy, directly into the brain is a bad idea!!!
It hasn’t worked in three years. In fact, the number of people filing for benefits every week has held at 400,000 - just 200,000 under the number of jobs she claim it will create. Man is she stupid.
My son’s father in law was on unemployment for nearly two years. He was a sprinkler installer so not high salary. He turned down a $10hr job about 6 mos ago and about 30 days ago had to start looking in earnest as u/e expiry date was looming. No problem..he got $15 hr job in about 2 weeks.
He enjoyed the free 2 years on the rest of us...and is a democrat.
If that were true why haven't all the prior unemployment checks that have been sent out over the last 2 years created 600,000 jobs?
Let’s extend it for fifty years and have full employment. LOL
“I think theyre so stupid, they actually believe it. And we all know the kneepad media would never question them.”
Understand something...
It no longer matters what the TRUTH is, just how the narrative is spun.
This is the same woman who, assisted by the media, convinced the sheeple that 4.2% Unemployment under Bush was “THE WORST ECONOMY SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION!!” in 2006.
Today, I had yet another example foisted on me showing just how prevalent Liberal Media Propaganda has become.
Someone I know to be an intelligent, educated person told me today, during a discussion on leaving Iraq:
1) “Bush killed 1.5 MILLION PEOPLE in Iraq!”
(Not true at all, not even close. Icasualties.Org)
2) The Iraq war cost TEN TRILLION DOLLARS!!!
(not true... Iraq cost LESS than Obama’s Porkulus)
After these two declarations, I asked my standard question to determine how fooled by media propaganda someone is:
“Who said, ‘I can see Russia from my house!”
The answer that came back, IMMEDIATELY, was “Why Sarah Palin, of course!”.
I stopped there...
Many here fail to realize just how deep and penetrating media propaganda has become. We, in this forum, know and understand the truth.
They vast majority of the sheeple, however, only know what they see as a headline on their Iphone, The radio headline they hear during the drive home from work during Rush Hour, the headline someone posts on Facebook, or what the 30 minute evening news deigns to cover.
